Battle of the Cover Songs

[Blue]

Annie Lennox is still sexy to this day and still can belt out the best of a melody with her awesome pipes.....



I just don't know what about this guy...but I still like a couple of his songs...I must be a little sick;)

[Blue]

The original....must be my fave song ever since I listen to it the most....



Again, F-off Lemmy



And again, I listen to this every once in a while, usually while doing 100+ on the bike or 65+ in the boat........

[Blue]

Word up yo!..........

Takes some nads to wear a codpiece!?!?(pun intended)



Even as a teen of the eighties, I must vote this better........

[Blue]

I gotta say PF and then Korn. MM is all by himself here(as usual) but not dismissed. Its wierd, but his stuff is freakily cool.

[Blue]

Bet no one knew this one was covered...and esp by such an artist.....

The Orig.....


The freak show.....

[Bigfella]

Nice choices Sniper.

Originally a Nerves song, Blondie did the definitive version of 'Hanging on the Telephone'. Def Leppard pretty much copies her (why mess with the best), L7 try to put their own stamp on it.

[Bigfella]

Punk Mk.1

A classic of angry teenage angst (with great intro)



very much in the spirit of the original..though lacking a certain 'punkness'



thrash was the bastard child of punk & metal, so this overkill version seems appropriate (ther is a second song here I haven't watched).

[Bigfella]

Punk Mk.2

OK, not technically punk, but the point from whence all punk originates. Also one of the greatest songs EVAH! (intense fil clip too)



...also not technically punk, but one of the most unerestimated bands of the era (gotta love Handsome Dick Manitoba)



This be punk



not punk either, but a great tribute.

Pete,
I'd have to go with the Red Hot Chili Peppers on Search and Destroy.

Here's my next match up . . . Cake vs. Gloria Gaynor.

Are you going into 'advanced'? if not then simply create your own. Just do a 'reply' on one of my pposts & steal the '[YT]' bits.

[Blue]

that worked

...be back tomorrow...thanks buddy!:)

The YT button was removed. To post a video, click on the video button and then post the full url. Works with youtube, googlevideo and others. This button is found both in the quick reply and advanced reply options

[S2]

That "video" button doesn't require any modification of the url either. Just click it on, paste the video url and hit "o.k.".
